"Super, is this mechanism really unbreakable?" As for the things in this ancient tomb, Super was the only expert here.

  If Old Wang were here, he might have a way. He Yichao was indeed a bit tender: "Except for forcibly demolishing the big gate, there really is no other way. There's also the method of digging through the earth, we can dig a hole from here and go down to the other side of the door, but with such a big commotion now, do our equipment or time allow it? My opinion is that if it's not urgent, just report it to the superior for handling. In the end, you'll still participate as an advisor, can't you figure it out?"

  Cha Wenbin did not agree with Chaozi's suggestion, because for him, there were more important things to do: "No way, we can't mess around with a group of archaeologists on this ghostly stuff. If word gets out, it'll affect their future work, not to mention the slow pace of excavation with those small shovels - it'll take years to excavate this Han tomb. I don't have time, and I'm afraid I won't make it until then. You few prepare yourselves, let's dig a hole from here and go in, whether there are gods or ghosts inside, today Grandpa Cha will pull him out for a stroll. Since ancient times, the most vicious thing is to not let someone rest in peace after death. Listening to this young lady's words, I suppose this historian wasn't a big villain when he was alive."

  He said to do it, and the air in this cave was almost not circulating, so stuffy. Working in such a place can easily lead to unconscious death due to lack of oxygen. Zhuo Xiong was sent by Cha Wenbin to fetch a blower, which is readily available at Erhu's home, he didn't even bother to speak, took it and left, Erhu's kid didn't dare fart, eager to get rid of this plague.

  Bring a blower, and use steel bars to make two hooks. The lower head is connected with plastic electric wire, directly connected to the blower. These hooks are directly hung on two 200-meter-long civilian power lines outside, and the blower is powered on to start sending in fresh air.

  Using this trick, when I was a kid, I used to electrocute fish with it, but the risk is really high. Here, I absolutely do not recommend that you all use this method, as it is illegal.

  Ten meters underground, Heng Roulian was vigorously wielding a hoe. The soil here was all yellow clay, which came out in big chunks when dug up. Chao Zi was responsible for transporting these to the back of the long corridor and piling them up. Zhuo Xiong was responsible for chopping down some sturdy tree trunks in the board forest. These would be used as supports later, because the tunnel was dug at a slanting U-shape. If it collapsed, people could get buried inside.

  Zha Wenbin was sitting next to him with his eyes closed, cultivating his spirit. The woman in white, although she could be basically confirmed as harmless, made Chaozi feel uneasy. Who would be happy to work with a female ghost watching from the side, especially when you're digging up someone's old grave? With Zha Wenbin around, even if a thousand-year-old monster popped out, it would probably be taken care of. On the ground, there were densely packed eight small flags, each with a word on it: Qian, Kun, Kan, Li, Zhen, Gen, Xun, and Dui. In total, they formed the eight trigrams of the Bagua. Below each flag was a red thread, which all converged to Zha Wenbin's hand, tied to the first joint of his right middle finger.

  This thing is equivalent to a radar, specially used to detect strange things around. If there's any suspicious movement in any direction, the small flag will wave even without wind, and the red string will also shake along with it. This way, even if he's sleeping, he can still observe his surroundings, and as soon as there's any movement, he'll have a reaction. Besides, Hei Zi was also brought down by Zhuo Xiong, if not for Cha Wenbin slapping them both beforehand, this guy would've rushed to the big gate yelling at the top of his lungs, but now it's quietly staying on the ground.

  As for physical strength, it's not just bragging. That little guy with a square face hasn't stopped since the first shovel movement. The two scouts couldn't even move the excavated soil in time. Chaozi laughed and said: "This kid must have been a wild ox or a mole in his previous life." He dug holes quickly, but also very wide, because of his large body size.

  Cha Wenbin looked at the pocket watch in his hand, and the time was almost approaching midnight. He let them take a break first, as the yin energy was too strong at this moment. If they accidentally dug into something, it would be a miscalculation. But under the tacit cooperation of the three brothers, after nearly two hours, Heng Roulian estimated that they had already dug halfway through and only came up to catch their breath.

  A few people sat down, Chaozi twisted open the bottle cap, just about to pour them a drink, when suddenly a faint cry came from inside the big gate. The cry was absolutely not like a human, nor did it sound like a ghost. It's hard to describe the feeling, but it was as if some child had been choked and couldn't cry out.

  Zha Wenbin only felt his middle finger move, and with a glance, the flag in the north was indeed waving in the wind, shaking with excitement. The black dog on the ground stood up, its hackles raised high, its canine teeth exposed, staring fiercely ahead.

  Zha Wenbin lost a piece of five-spice beef in his mouth, and said: "There's really something evil, Superzi, you pour three cups of wine outside the door, let him calm down for a while, and then go in to clean it up!"

  "Alright!" This little rascal, who was originally fearless and reckless, cursed as he walked by with a bottle of wine. The wine wasn't good, it was just old white liquor, strong but fragrant. Following Zhang Wenbin's orders, he poured three cups and spilled them in front of the door, muttering to himself: "Old brother, don't be impatient, first drink some to quench your thirst, wait for Master He to come in a bit and continue drinking..." As soon as the wine was poured out, the noise really stopped, and the flag also instantly returned to calm. Only Blackie was still on high alert. Zhang Wenbin casually tossed a peanut: "You're useless, just a few cups of wine and you've been sent off. After eating, we must hurry up and finish everything before dawn. Once this land is disturbed, we can't wait until daytime."

  After eating and drinking, the thick-skinned face looked at the yellow soil piled up like a small mountain behind him, spat a few mouthfuls of saliva into his palm, swung the big hoe again, and wholeheartedly devoted himself to digging holes. Looking at Chaozi's tongue sticking out, he kept sighing that this kid was absolutely a fool.

  "Clang", a spark flew out of the cave, and the horizontal meat face's palms went numb, "You guys come and take a look, it seems like there are stones down here!"

  Several people ran over to take a look and found that it was indeed the case. The tunnel had already been dug halfway through, with yellow earth on this side and all stone on the other side!

  Chaozi threw away the yellow earth in his hand and sat on the ground, sighing: "It's over, we've met a master thief. The tomb owner's anti-theft skills are really impressive. They must have anticipated that we would dig a hole, so they probably used flowing sandstone. If we insist on digging, the stones above will be loose and will eventually collapse, burying us alive. It seems that if we try to drill through the treasure top, we'll encounter even more trouble. This is indeed a thorny problem."

  The quicksand grave is the most dangerous anti-theft measure that tomb raiders may encounter. This bottom layer, which is filled with artificially piled up stones, cannot be removed by digging a tunnel, unless you have enough padding on top and use wooden planks to nail it in place. However, this project is extremely costly and perilous, and as long as the supporting force of one of the wooden sticks is crushed by the pressure from above, all previous efforts will be in vain.

  Cha Wenbin looked at the stones mixed in the yellow soil and knew that this road was impassable, so he turned around and asked Zhuo Xiong: "How much do we have left?"

  "Want to blow it up?"

  "Don't bother about those ancient artifacts, I'm telling you, this tomb is ominous, the archaeological team will come and many people will die. I'll just break open two large doors at most, it's better than letting them come and be buried with me later!" Zhang Wenbin had already made up his mind, he wasn't going to leave tonight until he figured out what was going on here.

  Zhuo Xiong counted the explosives in his backpack and said, "There are about six kilograms left, plus two detonators. Judging from the thickness of this door, I estimate that it will take at least ten kilograms to blast a hole through it. If not, I'll go out and get some more."

  "Do you think we're at war or something? Is the ammunition sufficient? You two come up with a plan, no matter what it takes, even if we have to blast a hole and get someone in, time is running out, hurry up!" Zhang Wenbin was dead serious this time, his face stern as he gazed into the distance, convinced that there must be something very important inside.

  Chaozi took the bag, walked to the door, gestured to a position, looked at the colorful Han Dynasty lacquerware, and said with a smile: "Goodbye, national treasure!", pulled out the dagger from his leg, roughly searched for a stop on the door, then started chiseling the door. Here, an explosion point must be designed to let all the force rush in.

  Half an hour later, he finally managed to carve a groove on the hard wooden board, just enough to hold those few segments. After using a stick to secure it, they connected the detonator and fuse, and several people retreated, fearing that if this place were to collapse, they would be buried alive. After returning to the surface, Cha Wenbin used a lighter to ignite it, and not long after, a muffled explosion sounded from below, followed by the strong smell of gunpowder wafting out. Only after half an hour had passed and the smell had dissipated did Cha Wenbin say: "Everyone get ready, be careful when going down, don't touch anything you shouldn't!" With that, he was the first to jump down, carrying Hei Zi...
